    Cool

    Stopped by the Arsenal Firearms booth at SHOT Show 2014 to take a peek at the Strike One model. (Not to be confused with Arsenal Inc. USA ... which of course I did lol).

    All silver be pimpin'!



    No barrel tilt!



    What keeps the barrel straight when it fires? This barrel bushing.



    Sorry for the crap photos. Phone camera was best I could do in a non-camera-permissive environment.



    Minimized muzzle rise is good. Also, as LAV astutely pointed out, this should be good for folks who want to rock suppressors.

    Trigger wasn't bad. The reset on the OD frame I tried was a little mushy, hopefully they'll fix that before release.

    Guys, this is not a toy, it certainly doesn't feel like one. If it proves to be durable and reliable and easy to service - and have reduced muzzle flip - I'm in for one when it comes out. $700-$800 I think.

    I don't want to derail this thread, but at the Arsenal Firearms booth, I was surprised and delighted to meet Erik Prince.

    Erik is a SEAL, entrepreneur, problem solver, patriot, and a scapegoat.

    Erik was autographing copies of his book "Civilian Warriors" and donating proceeds from book sales to a worthy charitable cause. Helluva nice guy.

    It's a pretty darn good read, gawrunteed to get your blood pressure up.

    Back cover:


    "I'm done keeping quiet.

    What's been said before is only half the story - and I won't sit idly by while the bureaucrats go after me so that everyone else can just go back to business as usual. The true history of Blackwater is exhilarating, rewarding, exasperating, and tragic. It's the story of men taking bullets to protect the men who take all the credit - a tale of patriots whose names only became known when lawyers and politicians needed to blame somebody for something.

    Our critics have spoken.

    Now it's my turn."

    With the non-tilting barrel, I would be interested to see how high the rounds sit in an inserted mag, relative to the bore centerline. Looks like it could be pretty a straight-feed system, like a Beretta 92.

    Odds on which one hits the market first, the Arsenal Strike One or the RRA Poly 1911? I know it takes time to get a new firearm to the consumer, but both have been on the horizon for a very long time.

    I would hope RRA can beat the 4Q estimate for the Strike One, but only time will tell.

    (I want both, so the anticipation is getting old.)

    That seems to be a very objective, well-reasoned argument.
